Do Not Use It For Pet Dogs – Thy will swallow it…
Fluoride toothpaste WAS registered as a S5 poison
The N.H.M.R.C. in their book “The Effectiveness of Water Fluoridation” p.131.,
explained the need to examine poison regulations concerning fluoride toothpaste
which was registered as an ‘S5 POISON’ as printed on the package.
The Answer by N.H.M.R.C.
Fluoride Toothpaste an S poison was reclassified as a
“Cosmetic for sales regulations ! ! ! “

GUM DAMAGE
Fluoride actually causes gum damage at the concentrations used in fluoridated toothpaste at 1,000 ppm. Fluoride poisons enzyme activity and slows down the ability of the gums to repair themselves.
If you brush your teeth with fluoridated toothpaste, you will suffer gum damage.
In 2009, there were 24,547 calls to U.S. Poison Control Centers due to ingestion of fluoride toothpaste.
A SAMPLE OF TOXIC INGREDIENTS FOUND IN TOOTHPASTE:
1) Sodium lauryl sulfate – A chemical sudsing agent with well known toxic side effects.
2) Sodium fluoride – Toxic by-product of aluminum and fertilizer chemical plants.
3) Triclosan ♠ – An actual pesticide chemical, used in toothpaste to prevent spoilage.
4) Propylene glycol – An antifreeze chemical used in vehicle radiators.
5) DEA – A foaming agent that’s linked to liver and kidney cancers.
6) Chemical sweeteners – aspartame and saccharin.
♠ Triclosan remains in Children’s Toothpaste Despite Risk…
A recent study demonstrated how quickly blood levels of triclosan may rise in small children exposed to the chemical in toothpaste and hand soap.5 This is one of the first studies to show how triclosan invades the bodies of young children through environmental exposure. Senior study author Joe Braun, assistant professor of epidemiology at Brown University, explained the impetus behind the study:6
“There’s very little data on the exposure in those first years of life. There are a lot of behavioral changes in those years, and environmental chemicals can play a role.”
Braun and his colleagues tested 389 women and children from Cincinnati between pregnancy and until the children were 8 years old. They collected urine three times during the pregnancy and periodically between the children’s first and eighth year. They found triclosan in more than 70 percent of the samples.
Interestingly, by age 8 they found children who used the most hand soap had 66 percent more triclosan in their body, and those who washed their hands more than five times a day had four times more chemical than those who reported washing their hands once or less per day.7 Children who brushed their teeth with toothpaste in the past 24 hours had 2.5 times more triclosan than those who had not used toothpaste. Isaac Pessah, Ph.D., researcher at the University of California, who was not involved in the study, commented:
“It’s a thorough, well-done analysis. Given the high concentrations [of triclosan] in personal care products, you’re seeing that the concentrations in the end user are also quite high.”
Triclosan in More Than Toothpaste and Hand Soap ~
Despite the fact that U.S. manufacturers must phase out triclosan after the FDA banned it and several other chemicals from use in hand soap after concerns were made public that it disrupted the body’s hormonal system, triclosan remains in other personal care products…

Don’t be fooled by small print on toothpaste packages (Aust.)
The majority of toothpast manufactures list ‘fluoride’ additives
in very small print! – Are the makers no longer proud of their product?

DROWNING IN FLUORIDE (toothpaste)
Nearly all toothpastes sold in the US, the UK and Australia contain fluoride – typically 1000-1500 parts per million. Commonly used mouth rinses contain 230-900 ppm. Fluoride is also present in candy-flavoured treatments and dentifrices. Fluoride products for preventing tooth decay may contain as much as 9000 ppm. Researchers at Madras Dental College and elsewhere found that the fluoride in fluoridated toothpaste, even if not swallowed, is quickly absorbed through the lining of the mouth and gums into the general circulation (Lancet, 1991; 337: 1213).
Toothpaste and vitamin preparations – and presumably baby formulas – containing fluoride cause allergic reactions in some children, toxic reactions in others (see www.cadvision.com/-fluoride/adverse).
The resulting mouth ulcers don’t respond to antibiotics or local medications, but clear up promptly when non-fluoride toothpaste is substituted (Ann Allergy; 1967; 25: 388-91)…… Full text → HERE

Fluoride is a toxic industrial waste product that is a poison to your body even in trace amounts, yet it is added to the majority of US water supplies using the rationale that it helps prevent dental cavities.
The archaic practice continues even though it is now widely recognized that fluoride’s only justifiable benefit comes from topical contact with teeth – and even that is debatable.
To put it simply, there are FAR better options for decreasing tooth decay than ingesting a harmful industrial pollutant or using a topical poison like fluoride… in fact, new research suggests even chocolate extract would make a better alternative.
CHOCOLATE TOOTHPASTE WORKS BETTER THAN FLUORIDE
A recent study presented at the American Dental Association (ADA) 2013 Annual Session pitted fluoride toothpaste against a new toothpaste that contains the naturally-occurring cacao extract theobromine.
This test determined which product better repaired and re-mineralized exposed dentin (the tissue that makes up the bulk of your teeth below the enamel). Exposed dentin is a leading cause of tooth hypersensitivity.
The results showed that patients who brushed their teeth with the cacao-extract toothpaste twice a day for one week had “100 percent dental occlusion” with their tooth dentin becoming re-mineralized or repaired. According to a press release:1
“The comparison to toothpastes containing fluoride – one as much as 5,000 ppm [parts per million] – validates what our research has shown all along: that Rennou [the cocoa extract] … is more effective and safer than fluoride, which can be toxic if ingested.”
Past research has also shown that the chocolate ingredient theobromine works better than fluoride. When lesions in artificial enamel were treated with theobromine, remineralization occurred at a greater rate than when they were treated with fluoride.2 The study found, in fact, that theobromine made teeth less vulnerable to bacterial acid erosion that could lead to cavities.
SCIENTISTS NOW QUESTIONING WHETHER FLUORIDE
WORKS TO FIGHT CAVITIES
With potential alternatives like theobromine, which, unlike fluoride, are not harmful when swallowed, it’s unfortunate that fluoride can still be found in a vast assortment of toothpastes, mouthwashes and professionally applied fluoride treatments. It’s even added to your drinking water for this purpose, as mentioned.
Yet fluoride, long heralded as the answer to decaying teeth, is receiving increasing scrutiny –
and for good reason.
A groundbreaking study published in the journal Langmuir4 uncovered that the fluorapatite layer formed on your teeth from fluoride is a mere six nanometers thick. To understand just how thin this is, you’d need 10,000 of these layers to get the width of a strand of your hair!
Scientists now question whether this ultra-thin layer can actually protect your enamel and provide any discernible benefit, considering the fact that it is quickly eliminated by simple chewing. They wrote:
“ …it has to be asked whether such narrow… layers really can act as protective layers for the enamel.”
FLUORIDE TOOTHPASTE CAN BE DEADLY TO CHILDREN
I’m not a fan of fluoridated toothpaste for adults or children, but if you do decide to use it, it’s probably best to keep it safely out of the reach of your children. Fluoride toothpaste is often the largest single source of fluoride intake for young children, and is a major risk factor for disfiguring dental fluorosis.
This is because children swallow a large amount of the paste that they put in their mouth. In fact, research has shown that it is not uncommon for young children to swallow more fluoride from toothpaste alone than is recommended as an entire day’s ingestion from all sources.5
If you have a young child, it’s recommended that you use a non-fluoride toothpaste. If, however, you do use fluoride toothpaste, it’s very important that you supervise your children while they brush to make sure they use no more than a “pea-sized amount” of paste, and that they fully rinse and spit after they finish.
And, lastly, do not purchase candy-flavored toothpaste (e.g., bubble-gum and watermelon) as these toothpastes (which still contain adult-strength concentrations of fluoride) increase the risk that your children will swallow it (and actually want to swallow it). Still, it’s hard to ignore the absurdity that poison control should be called if you swallow a quarter milligram of fluoride from toothpaste while just ONE glass of water can contain this amount of fluoride.
THE INSANITY OF SWALLOWING FLUORIDE TO PREVENT CAVITIES
Apply toxic fluoride topically to your teeth is bad enough from a health (and lack of effectiveness) perspective, but swallowing it daily in your drinking water takes this fluoride insanity to a whole other level.
The science clearly demonstrates that fluoride is a toxic chemical that accumulates in your tissues over time, wreaks havoc with enzymes, and produces a number of serious adverse health effects, including neurological and endocrine dysfunction.
Children are particularly at risk for adverse effects of overexposure. Scientists from the US Environmental Protection Agency’s (EPA) National Health and Environmental Effects Research Laboratory have classified fluoride as a “chemical having substantial evidence of developmental neurotoxicity,” 25 studies have now reported an association between fluoride exposure and reduced IQ in children.

can not spit it out of his mouth and will get very ill ingesting it.
THE SAFEST SOLUTION TO BETTER DENTAL HEALTH
Toothpaste containing natural ingredients, like theobromine and others, appears to be more effective and safer than fluoride-containing toothpastes. Water fluoridation, too, is ineffective and may offer no benefit at all for your teeth, not to mention placing your overall health in jeopardy. There’s no reason to risk it. Here are my basic guidelines for optimizing your dental health, safely and naturally:
-
Avoid fluoridated water and fluoridated toothpaste.
-
Minimize your sugar and grain consumption. Keep your fructose intake to less than 25 grams per day. Avoid processed foods.
-
Make sure you consume a diet rich in fresh, whole foods, fermented vegetables, and grass-fed meats, which will ensure you’re getting plenty of the minerals that are so important for strong bones and teeth.
-
Practice good oral hygiene and get regular cleanings from a mercury-free natural dentist.
-
Consider oil pulling with coconut oil, which is a powerful inhibitor of a large variety of pathogenic organisms.
